    fuel filter is easy and it helps out a lot, just release the fuel pressure then unscrew it and put the new one on, you should just get a shop manuel

    they make TB cleaner spray, i think 3M makes it but just cheap carb cleaner spray will work fine. any part store or wal-mart.

    i would take the TB off and clean it all out but mainly around the butterfly is what you need to clean, and there are a few ports that like to get clogged that you have to take off the TB to clean. i like to do this, i dont know if you need to, but i do.
